Poetry and reviews

This is an interesting and unique take on a well-known Bible story from the old Testament. “The Fall of Lilith” follows a group of angels who rebel against the life they have in heaven, in a place called Floraison. Lilith is the driving force behind all of this as she encourages Lucifer to lead. As expected, the rebels find themselves on earth. This is my favorite part of the story and where it got interesting. I can’t say I rooted for Lilith, but there were others I was hoping things would work out for—like Gadreel. Ms. Vega crafted a well-written book with lots of depth, images to pull you in, and it definitely kept my interest as I wondered what was going to happen next. I recommend this book if you love fantasy with a Biblical connection– or an action-packed tale of revenge.

“Stranger Abduction” is a well-written novel based on an actual event. A mother and daughter walk from their home to a store in Arizona and never make it back. Mr. Chitwood gives a very viable and chilling account as to what might have happened next. Doris and Deena find themselves thrown into the human trafficking trade, while the Deputy Jack Kiefer never gives up on finding them. The details and characters kept this a page turning book as well as the side story with the Deputy. This is a glimpse into an evil that is going on around us as “products” (a label used for Doris and Deena) are being drugged and used for other’s gratification or service. I highly recommend this book, because even with a dark subject matter there are always heroes.

Powerful poem, Denise, and the ending is perfect. It accompanies your two reviews beautifully. I’ve only read Stranger Abduction, and like you, I strongly recommend it. Blessings…I hope your day is full of light. ♥

Excellent reviews, Denise. Super poem. You captured the tense night ventures out. We have the additional joy of coyotes as well. Seeing oe in the moonlight certainly raises the hair on the back of your neck.

Thanks, John! I can’t say I’ve seen a coyote in the moonlight, but I know we have them! It would raise the hairs on back of neck seeing that I agree:) They were very vocal when i visited my aunt and uncle in AZ…the worst part was when they caught the rabbits. Yikes.

Hi Denise! I enjoyed your poem very much. It’s a perfect prelude to the dark fiction reviews. Thanks again for reading The Fall of Lilith and for this wonderful review. I have Billy Ray’s book in my Kindle. It reads fascinating. Great post!😊

Thank you Vashti! I’m glad you liked the poem and it certainly fit the mood. The Fall of Lilith was such an different take– it made it all the more interesting and intriguing to read. I look forward to reading more from you! I think you will enjoy Stranger Abduction!

Hi Denise. Ouch! You got me with the poem. I’ve always been afraid to be outside in the dark. Well done.
I love Vashti’s book and look forward to a chance to read Billy Ray’s. (He and I grew up in the same general neck of the woods.) Terrific post. Hugs all around!
